Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a plug-side connector and a socket-side connector for electrical connection with one another according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • plug connections which consist of a plug element and a socket element.
  • the plug element has one or more contact elements which are inserted into one or more corresponding socket contacts in the socket element.
  • very large currents and / or voltages are transmitted via the plug-in elements and thus via their contact elements.
  • test finger can be used, which corresponds to a prescribed standard IEC 60529 and is pressed with a prescribed test force against sections or openings of the plug-in element in which the contact element or elements are located. The test finger must not come into contact with the current-carrying sections of the contact elements.
  • the WO 2014/187908 discloses a plug, the contact of which is partially surrounded by a protective sheath, and a plug, in which the protective sheath is formed in one piece with an insulating cap for the contact.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a connector which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art.
  • a plug is specified which has a compact construction.
  • Another particularly preferred object is to specify a plug which provides the best possible and constant electrical contact possible.
  • a pin-side connector for electrical connection to a socket-side connector comprising a pin-side connector housing with a connector base and a connector wall, an electrically conductive contact pin with a free pin end and a base-side pin end for fastening the contact pin to the pin-side connector housing, and a Protective element which is designed to be electrically insulating.
  • the protective element is arranged at a distance from the contact pin on the pin-side connector housing.
  • the protective element prevents unintentional contact with the contact pin by one Fingers or the like.
  • the spacing also makes it possible for a socket to electrically encompass the entire circumferential side of the contact pin.
  • the pin-side connector can have one or more contact pins, in which case one or more protective elements are preferably provided.
  • One protective element is preferably arranged per contact pin. Statements relating to one contact pin or protective element in each case are therefore to be understood accordingly for one or more contact pins or protective elements.
